It's VERY expensive!

Went on another free walking tour company (yes the guides with the pink vests). This time we ended up in the most expensive street in Paris filled with expensive jewellers including Cartier (shown below with the security guard waiting as the shutters go up). Our guide (in the pink vest) was explaining that shops must display prices unless they are selling works of art so these jewellers obviously class their merchandise as works of art.

The post title comes from Eileen's favourite film, Pretty Woman, where Julia Roberts asks some snooty shop assistants how much a dress cost and is told "It's very expensive" and is then asked to leave the shop.
